Headline Description Reference

In these situations, users need to verify that the IE registry does
contain non standard WEB server connection settings.

1. Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).

2. Locate the following key in the registry:

IE 5 & above doesn’t
display web pages
normally. In some cases
not all images are loaded,
in other cases “Page not
found” error may appear.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre
ntVersion\Internet Settings

3. If the following entries exist, delete them

Value name: MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server

Value Name: MaxConnectionsPerServer

4. Quit Registry Editor.

IE normally limits the number of simultaneous TCP/IP
connections made to a single web server. Windows limits HTTP

1.1 connections to two simultaneous connections. RFC2068
mandates the two connection limit.

These settings can be changed only through IE registry to any
non standard value.
